RSSAT: A Wireless Intrusion Detection System Based on Received Signal Strength Acceptance Test

Intrusion detection in wireless networks has been a challenging research problem in network security for more than half a century. This paper presents a novel intrusion detection method based on Received Signal Strength Acceptance Test (RSSAT) to improve the IDS capabilities in anomaly-based Host-based Intrusion Detection Systems (HIDS). The new system can identify suspicious behaviors detectin...

A Lightweight Intrusion Detection System Based on Specifications to Improve Security in Wireless Sensor Networks

Due to the prevalence of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) in the many mission-critical applications such as military areas, security has been considered as one of the essential parameters in Quality of Service (QoS), and Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is considered as a fundamental requirement for security in these networks. This paper presents a lightweight Intrusion Detection System to prote...

Securing Cluster-heads in Wireless Sensor Networks by a Hybrid Intrusion Detection System Based on Data Mining

Cluster-based Wireless Sensor Network (CWSN) is a kind of WSNs that because of avoiding long distance communications, preserve the energy of nodes and so is attractive for related applications. The criticality of most applications of WSNs and also their unattended nature, makes sensor nodes often susceptible to many types of attacks. Based on this fact, it is clear that cluster heads (CHs) are ...

A Routing Protocol Based on Received Signal Strength for Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs)

Underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) are featured by long propagation delay, limited energy, narrow bandwidth, high BER (Bit Error Rate) and variable topology structure. These features make it very difficult to design a short delay and high energy-efficiency routing protocol for UWSNs. In this paper, a routing protocol independent of location information is proposed based on received sig...

An Anomaly based Wireless Intrusion Detection System

Target localization in wireless sensor networks based on received signal strength

We consider the problem of localizing a target taking the help of a set of anchor beacon nodes. A small number of beacon nodes are deployed at known locations in the area. The target can detect a beacon provided it happens to lie within the beacon’s transmission range. Thus, the target obtains a measurement vector containing the readings of the beacons: ‘1’ corresponding to a beacon if it is ab...
